LUNA POV

I felt the warm blanket wrapped around my body, I tried to open my eyes and saw a glimpse of light that greeted me through the opening of this cave. The light hurts my eyes making it difficult for me to see my surroundings casting the shadows.

"Hector! Hector!" I called his name but I got no response.

"Where could he be?" I asked myself.

I remember last night, how he took care of me. It means a lot to me. From being my kidnapper maybe, to being my savior. Riding on his back feels so good and the way he hugged me last night was like heaven. I felt comfortable in his arms. I think, I even dreamt of him last night saying "I love you to me". Well, that was a nice dream, how I wish that could be real.  I felt my face flush red.

I tried to get up, but my body still aches after that fever last night. But I feel a little better now. I reached for my clothes to dress up. I can't believe it, I've been naked the whole night with the only blanket

We ate some kinds of seafood and the taste was amazing.Looking from the outside, I am enjoying the beauty of this place. Hector told me that we were in Astoria. The seaside town of Astoria borders both the Pacific Ocean and the Columbia River in far northwest Oregon. I can see the antique streets with several visitor magnets, like restaurants and boutiques. We also passed by the Captain George Flavel House Museum and the Oregon Film Museum. I've never been to this place before. Hector stopped the car. As I went out of the car, I was amazed at the beauty of this place. From where I am standing, I can see other houses and small buildings in this town. I also saw a perfect view of the ocean. It was blue and sparkled like crystals."This place is beautiful Hector. What's this place called?" I aske

The woman raised her right eyebrow as if she was pissed at me for interrupting her and Hector."Sorry for interrupting you guys. Anyway, I will just leave now so you two can continue what you are doing." my voice was cracking. I want to burst into tears."I'm sorry Luna, this is Clarisse and..." he said as he tried to look for the perfect word to say."No need to apologize Hector. I am used to seeing you playing with women." I don't care if they see me with teary eyes this time. I felt disrespected imagining Hector having another woman in the room where we were staying."Hector, is she your other woman too?" the woman spoke."No, I'm not Clarisse. And I will never be. &
